I guess there HUGE fanbase that you people try to act like they have decided to pass on those games..You people make me LaughOutLoud.. Your truely comical, im done.

Murais isn't talking about video games, where does he/she say that? The Warhammer fanbase is the model painting/fighting. Look at Games Workshop for what Warhammer actually is about.
Well one of the points I was trying to make was that Warhammer doesnt even have a video game out that has done well... Hell I dont even think they have a Video game out just Table top and things of that nature. And if you think there are tens of Millions of people playing Warhammer's table top(like there are playing Blizzard games) around the world then your Delusional.
Im done time to take my own advice.. Im a blizzard fan boy as well so I loose automatically on this site.
Yes, but you were trying to prove Murais wrong, saying that the "fanbase" meant their "video game fanbase". And just FYI, they have MANY video games out, just not MMOs.
The OP is right, we can't predict the future. All we can go by is past history. If you're done your rambling tirade againster posters mind telling us how EA's history is with mmorpgs or with past buyouts? How's Dungeon Keeper doing? C&C? UO? E&B? MCO? Battlemech?
Put less thought into your flames and more into history.

I think I'll take your signature to heart and not bother arguing with you. Your mind is set and nothing will change it, WoW is your home and you shall remain there. Shallow and simple gameplay is all you need to be happy.

OH ROFL and what game has warhammer made? Your serious? You do realize that MYTHIC is making warhammer right? Mythic has made DAOC. DAOC IS THE JUGGERNAUT OF PVP now shoo OFF WITH YE!!
There is a first for everything--- EaMythic COULD BE the first MMO buyout that actually took a right turn. I surely hope it is. Warhamer is the only game Im interested in playing thats in development. There are a few others like Darkfall but armageddon will come before that game is ever released. So warhammer is a last hope for me.
The two owners/presidents of MYTHIC are now Co-President CEO whatchamacallit's now at EA MYTHIC...so who knows. I hope they have enough weight to throw around to help EA see there point. If EA IS NOT bullheaded then this might be a good thing. It would basically mean more $$ within mythics grasp.
OP yer an idiot. Name 3 succesful game developers releasing new games under the EA flag. They have bought about.. 50-60 of them manufacturers that has existed since the C64 era. So... should be easy, name 3. Not their own series of Updates of the same game they had last year. new games, by companies bought by EA?
No...? There you go, that is Mythic after Warhammer Online. They buy out the competition, they do nto give a flying squat about the original company they want it gone and its competence chained to their own chairs.
Good thing... You have so few clues a clue salesman would give you a clue for free out of pity.

To everyone's surprise, there were some of us that predicted the then mighty Mourning would be crap when/if released. We got mocked. I predicted it and got mocked hard. Mourning released. Utter crap. There were those of us that predicted long in advance that Dark and Light would be utter crap. And it is. There were people on these boards long before World of Warcraft released that predicted that WoW would be the biggest selling mmo of all time. Look it at now. There were many on these boards that played the Pre-Trammel Ultima Online. Before EA got its way with it. The differences between 1999 UO and 2006 UO are drastic for the worse. We saw E&B and how EA ruined and closed it too soon. Some of us might even despise EA for doing what they did with Madden football and buying all NFL game making rights, thus meaning no competition for Madden football for the next 5 years or some BS. Lord help us. Yes, you are right, EA has money. And with that, they also have power and OWNERSHIP over Mythic now. Everytime you read about a "merger" between two companies, it actually means one of the companies bought the other one out. In this case, EA bought out Mythic. Now EA OWNS Mythic. Thus, the new name, EA Mythic or whatever. DAoC will be completely pampered and tweaked until it is a total carebear POS game. Watch. Learn. Warhammer Online will likely be taken in a completely different direction and yesterdays promised features will turn into tommorrows stream-lined crap. My thoughts on this: EA saw the graphics of Warhammer and similarities to the looks of WoW. Naturally, being the greedy company that EA is (refer back to Madden NFL contract or shutting down E&B too early)... EA wants a piece of the WoW money pie. They want it more then anything. They could care less about loyal fans. They could care less about a quality game. They care only about the f'n $$$. I guess ya can't really blame them, but their greed is so great, it turns them good game ruiners. They trash a great game and turn into poop just so they can fit more people in a world or whatever (UO: Trammel expansion). EA will try and turn Warhammer into an almost replica WoW clone with better graphics. Watch. That's my prediction. Let time tell us all. EA ruins games with their Extreme corporate greed. I used to call EA "Electronic Arts". Now I call EA an name much more appropriate: "Extreme Assholes". - Zaxx
Couldn't agree more. Big companies need to stay away from making games. They don't care about good game play. They only care about making the dough. They lie, they steal, they scheme, they do anything to seperate you from your dollar. They'd rip off their own mother.

Im an idiot? All I said was its possible its a good thing and you cant predict the future. AND YOU CANT. IF YOU THINK YOU CAN, WHOSE THE IDIOT?
Name me some other companies that EA has bought out that were as succesful as Mythic.....that have as much going for them as mythic.
And just because I have a point of view that differs from yours doesnt make me an idiot. You coming here all pissed off because I proposed that maybe your attitudes were a bit overboard
Seriously...chill the fk out.

Name me one thats better
Dont say Ultima (2dgraphics? JstSayNo)
Dont say Asherons Call (the jump around game)
lol Lineage doesnt have a shot
EvE is in space...no thanks
That argument was pathetic, every point you raised was idiotic. Since when can Ultima Online not compete for best PvP because of 2D graphics? And EVE, you think "no thanks" qualifies as a good answer as to why it's not a juggernaut of PvP too?

quick to point out its a discussion to them, but you go all bold letters and caps, calling people morons etc because they disagree with you?
I was burned by EA, twice, and you want to say I'm a moron because I won't put my hand back in the fire 'just in case' it might be OK this time? you aren't having a discussion, your on a tirade.
Me saying I'm not buying any more EA products is hardly a death sentence for them anyway. There are plenty of people playing MMO's who haven't had any experiences with them at all yet- most of them playing WoW. The people here saying they won't play isn't going to kill your precious WAR anyway, or if it does fail, we at least won't be the reason, so why does it matter so much?
Strange how I didnt see any valid points in that reply, developers of are/used to be cool, dice, westwood, maxis and others. They still can make good games. But EA is just a bunch of cash whores who should have gone to SOE if they realy wanted new mmos to cancel. Now go back to playing nfs underground and leave us mmoers to our games.

A different view doesn't make you an idiot. The way you started your "discussion" with emo, CRY MORE, YOUR A MORON, and You dont know what your talking about is what makes you an idiot.
I don't mind people who say they will be more carefull with the title.
I do mind people who act like: "omg, EA took over mythic, they ruined one of my favourite titles years ago! they MUST and WILL do it again, since its EA's goal to ruin games! *cancels pre-order*"
EA is a big company that has changed over the years. besides, I don't know how many times I have said this, but the information that has been given to us clearly says nothing will change. EA will now just have Mythics back on funds.

Ahh im sorry poor little EMO.. Did I hurt your feelings about your dead agian born agian game? Im sorry I said something about your tired little first im Developed by Climax then im closed down, then im reopened only to be closed down agian by Climax only to be reopened and developed by Mythic several months later only to be eaten by EA a few months after that... This game has more twist, turns and deadends then a freaking cave... I wouldnt be shocked if 1 year after realease its canceled by EA.. Thats assuming it even gets to realease and judging by its history thats not a sure thing.
But hey thats a low blow talking about the History of this game like that... Lets talk about the Future, lets talk about that because as we all know with EA behind ya you will have such a bright future in the MMORPG world....

EA is where programmers, games, and companies go to die.
EA has a history of making popular games but that are buggy and bloated.
